Don't Call Me Up
Jagger Mick Lyrics

I was trying to forget you
I was attempting to erase your memory from my mind

But you won't tell me how
However, you failed to teach me how to forget you

Lately I'm finding it tricky
Recently, I have discovered it to be challenging

With your picture plastered all over town
As your image is present everywhere in the city

Friends pick you up in conversation
My acquaintances bring up your name in discussion

Just to see how I'll react
Simply to witness my reaction towards you being mentioned

I get this internal lacerations
I experience internal cuts and wounds

That jack me up and lay me out flat
Which disorient and debilitate me

But I can't throw my life away
However, I cannot waste my existence

I can't give the game away
I cannot surrender and reveal my strategies

You just wandered off the stage
You departed abruptly

And left me dealing with the pain
Leaving me to cope with the agony

So don't call me up
Therefore, do not contact me

Oh when you want to cry
If you desire to weep

'cause I might let you down
Since I could disappoint you

On some rainy night
During a stormy evening

Let you down
I might fail you

People ask have you seen her
Individuals inquire if I have encountered you

I say not for a while
I reply that I have not seen you recently

I'm gonna see my girlfriend
I am planning to visit my partner

Way down in Argentina
Far down in Argentina

We're gonna have a blast for a while
We will have an enjoyable time for some duration

But I see you in my inner eye
However, I envision you in my mind's eye

Touch me with a gentle smile
Your soft smile affects me emotionally

Wonder if you catch my mood
I ponder if you perceive my emotional state

Can you feel my solitude
Do you sense the loneliness that I experience

When some other guy
If another guy

Hangs your heartstrings out to dry
When someone plays with your emotions and leaves you vulnerable

As the waves crash around
While the waves crash in the background

And the stars hit the ground
And the stars descend to the earth

I'll be out of my mind once again
I will lose control of my thoughts once more

As the rain lashes down
While the rain pours down

And the stars can't be found
And the stars are not visible in the sky

I will hold my head high
I will maintain a confident attitude

And just gaze at the sky
And simply observe the sky

I was under your spell
I was enchanted by you

And you took me to hell
And you caused me a lot of pain and suffering

If you want some lie
If you want to hear a falsehood

Might let you down
I may disappoint you
